\nb) Not discrete
\nc) Not discrete
\nd) Discrete
\ne) Not discrete
\nf) Discrete
\ng) Not discrete
\nh) Discrete
\ni) Not discrete<\/p>\n

Example 2.
\nWater flows from a faucet into a bathtub at a constant rate of 7 gallons of water every 2 minutes Regard the volume of water accumulated in the tub as a function of the number of minutes the faucet has be on. Is this function discrete or not discrete?
\nAnswer:
\n\u2192 Assuming the tub is initially empty, we determined last lesson that the volume of water in the tub is given by y = 3.5x, where y is the volume of water in gallons, and x is the number of minutes the faucet has been on.<\/p>\n

\u2192 What limitations are there on x and y?
\nBoth x and y should be positive numbers because they represent time and volume.<\/p>\n

\u2192 Would this function be considered discrete or not discrete? Explain.
\nThis function is not discrete because we can assign any positive number to x, not just positive integers.<\/p>\n

Example 3.
\nYou have just been served freshly made soup that is so hot that it cannot be eaten. You measure the temperature of the soup, and it is 210\u00b0F. Since 212\u00b0F is boiling, there is no way it can safely be eaten yet. One minute after receiving the soup, the temperature has dropped to 203\u00b0F. If you assume that the rate at which the soup cools is constant, write an equation that would describe the temperature of the soup over time.
\nAnswer:
\nThe temperature of the soup dropped 7\u00b0F in one minute. Assuming the cooling continues at the same rate, then if y is the temperature of the soup after x minutes, then, y = 210 – 7x.
\n\u2192 We want to know how long it will be before the temperature of the soup is at a more tolerable temperature of 147\u00b0F. The difference in temperature from 210\u00b0F to 147\u00b0F is 63\u00b0F. For what number x will our function have the value 147?
\n147 = 210 – 7x; then 7x = 63, and so x = 9.
\n\u2192 Curious whether or not you are correct in assuming the cooling rate of the soup is constant, you decide to measure the temperature of the soup each minute after its arrival to you. Here\u2019s the data you obtain:
\n\"Engage
\nOur function led us to believe that after 9 minutes the soup would be safe to eat. The data in the table shows that it is still too hot.<\/p>\n

\u2192 What do you notice about the change in temperature from one minute to the next?
\nFor the first few minutes, minute 2 to minute 5, the temperature decreased 6\u00b0F each minute. From minute 5 to minute 9, the temperature decreased just 5\u00b0F each minute.
\n\u2192 Since the rate of cooling at each minute is not constant, this function is said to be a nonlinear function.<\/p>\n

\u2192 Sir Isaac Newton not only studied the motion of objects under gravity but also studied the rates of cooling of heated objects. He found that they do not cool at constant rates and that the functions that describe their temperature over time are indeed far from linear. (In fact, Newton\u2019s theory establishes that the temperature of soup at time x minutes would actually be given by the formula y = 70 + 140(\\(\\frac{133}{140}\\))x<\/sup>.)<\/p>\n

Example 4.
\nConsider the function that assigns to each of nine baseball players, numbered 1 through 9, his height. The data for this function is given below. Call the function G.
\n\"Engage
\nAnswer:
\n\u2192 What output does G assign to the input 2?
\nThe function G assigns the height 5′ 4” to the player 2.<\/p>\n

\u2192 Could the function G simultaneously assign a second, different output to player 2? Explain.
\nNo. The function assigns height to a particular player. There is no way that a player can have two different heights.
\n\u2192 It is not clear if there is a formula for this function. (And even if there were, it is not clear that it would be meaningful since who is labeled player 1, player 2, and so on is probably arbitrary.) In general, we can hope to have formulas for functions, but in reality we cannot expect to find them. (People would love to have a formula that explains and predicts the stock market, for example.)<\/p>\n

\u2192 Can we classify this function as discrete or not discrete? Explain.
\nThis function would be described as discrete because the inputs are particular players.<\/p>\n

Eureka Math Grade 8 Module 5 Lesson 4 Exercise Answer Key<\/h3>\n

Exercises 1\u20133<\/p>\n

Exercise 1.
\nAt a certain school, each bus in its fleet of buses can transport 35 students. Let B be the function that assigns to each count of students the number of buses needed to transport that many students on a field trip.<\/p>\n

When Jinpyo thought about matters, he drew the following table of values and wrote the formula B = x\/35. Here x is the count of students, and B is the number of buses needed to transport that many students. He concluded that B is a linear function.
\n\"Engage
\nAlicia looked at Jinpyo\u2019s work and saw no errors with his arithmetic. But she said that the function is not actually linear.
\na. Alicia is right. Explain why B is not a linear function.
\nAnswer:
\nFor 36 students, say, we\u2019ll need two buses\u2014an extra bus for the extra student. In fact, for 36,37, \u2026, up to 70 students, the function B assigns the same value 2. For 71,72, \u2026, up to 105, it assigns the value 3. There is not a constant rate of increase of the buses needed, and so the function is not linear.<\/p>\n

b. Is B a discrete function?
\nAnswer:
\nIt is a discrete function.<\/p>\n

Exercise 2.
\nA linear function has the table of values below. It gives the costs of purchasing certain numbers of movie tickets.
\n\"Engage
\na. Write the linear function that represents the total cost, y, for x tickets purchased.
\nAnswer:
\ny = \\(\\frac{27.75}{2}\\) x
\ny = 9.25x<\/p>\n

b. Is the function discrete? Explain.
\nAnswer:
\nThe function is discrete. You cannot have half of a movie ticket; therefore, it must be a whole number of tickets, which means it is discrete.<\/p>\n

c. What number does the function assign to 4? What do the question and your answer mean?
\nAnswer:
\nIt is asking us to determine the cost of buying 4 tickets. The function assigns 37 to 4. The answer means that 4 tickets will cost $37.00.<\/p>\n

Exercise 3.
\nA function produces the following table of values.
\n\"Engage
\na. Make a guess as to the rule this function follows. Each input is a word from the English language.
\nAnswer:
\nThis function assigns to each word its first letter.<\/p>\n

b. Is this function discrete?
\nAnswer:
\nIt is discrete.<\/p>\n

Eureka Math Grade 8 Module 5 Lesson 4 Problem Set Answer Key<\/h3>\n

Question 1.
\nThe costs of purchasing certain volumes of gasoline are shown below. We can assume that there is a linear relationship between x, the number of gallons purchased, and y, the cost of purchasing that many gallons.
\n\"Eureka
\na. Write an equation that describes y as a linear function of x.
\nAnswer:
\ny = 3.65x<\/p>\n

b. Are there any restrictions on the values x and y can adopt?
\nAnswer:
\nBoth x and y must be positive rational numbers.<\/p>\n

c. Is the function discrete?
\nAnswer:
\nThe function is not discrete.<\/p>\n

d. What number does the linear function assign to 20? Explain what your answer means.
\nAnswer:
\ny = 3.65(20)
\ny = 73
\nThe function assigns 73 to 20. It means that if 20 gallons of gas are purchased, it will cost $73.00.<\/p>\n

Question 2.
\nA function has the table of values below. Examine the information in the table to answer the questions below.
\n\"Eureka
\na. Describe the function.
\nAnswer:
\nThe function assigns those particular numbers to those particular seven words. We don\u2019t know if the function accepts any more inputs and what it might assign to those additional inputs. (Though it does seem compelling to say that this function assigns to each positive whole number the count of letters in the name of that whole number.)<\/p>\n

b. What number would the function assign to the word eleven?
\nAnswer:
\nWe do not have enough information to tell. We are not even sure if eleven is considered a valid input for this function.<\/p>\n

Question 3.
\nThe table shows the distances covered over certain counts of hours traveled by a driver driving a car at a constant speed.
\n\"Eureka
\na. Write an equation that describes y, the number of miles covered, as a linear function of x, number of hours driven.
\nAnswer:
\ny = \\(\\frac{141}{3}\\) x
\ny = 47x<\/p>\n

b. Are there any restrictions on the value x and y can adopt?
\nAnswer:
\nBoth x and y must be positive rational numbers.<\/p>\n

c. Is the function discrete?
\nAnswer:
\nThe function is not discrete.<\/p>\n

d. What number does the function assign to 8? Explain what your answer means.
\nAnswer:
\ny = 47(8)
\ny = 376
\nThe function assigns 376 to 8. The answer means that 376 miles are driven in 8 hours.<\/p>\n

e. Use the function to determine how much time it would take to drive 500 miles.
\nAnswer:
\n500 = 47x
\n\\(\\frac{500}{47}\\) = x
\n10.63829\u2026 = x
\n10.6 \u2248 x
\nIt would take about 10.6 hours to drive 500 miles.<\/p>\n

Question 4.
\nConsider the function that assigns to each time of a particular day the air temperature at a specific location in Ithaca, NY. The following table shows the values of this function at some specific times.
\n\"Eureka
\na. Let y represent the air temperature at time x hours past noon. Verify that the data in the table satisfies the linear equation y = 92 – 1.5x.
\nAnswer:
\nAt 12:00, 0 hours have passed since 12:00; then, y = 92 – 1.5(0) = 92.
\nAt 1:00, 1 hour has passed since 12:00; then, y = 92 – 1.5(1) = 90.5.
\nAt 2:00, 2 hours have passed since 12:00; then, y = 92 – 1.5(2) = 89.
\nAt 4:00, 4 hours have passed since 12:00; then, y = 92 – 1.5(4) = 86.
\nAt 8:00, 8 hours have passed since 12:00; then, y = 92 – 1.5(8) = 80.<\/p>\n

b. Are there any restrictions on the types of values x and y can adopt?
\nAnswer:
\nThe input is a particular time of the day, and y is the temperature. The input cannot be negative but could be intervals that are fractions of an hour. The output could potentially be negative because it can get that cold.<\/p>\n

c. Is the function discrete?
\nAnswer:
\nThe function is not discrete.<\/p>\n

d. According to the linear function of part (a), what will the air temperature be at 5:30 p.m.?
\nAnswer:
\nAt 5:30, 5.5 hours have passed since 12:00; then y = 92 – 1.5(5.5) = 83.75.
\nThe temperature at 5:30 will be 83.75\u00b0F.<\/p>\n

e. Is it reasonable to assume that this linear function could be used to predict the temperature for 10:00 a.m. the following day or a temperature at any time on a day next week? Give specific examples in your explanation.
\nAnswer:
\nNo. There is no reason to expect this function to be linear. Temperature typically fluctuates and will, for certain, rise at some point.
\nWe can show that our model for temperature is definitely wrong by looking at the predicted temperature one week (168 hours) later:
\ny = 92 – 1.5(168)
\ny = – 160.
\nThis is an absurd prediction.<\/p>\n

Question 1.
\nThe table below shows the costs of purchasing certain numbers of tablets. We can assume that the total cost is a linear function of the number of tablets purchased.
\n\"Eureka
\na. Write an equation that describes the total cost, y, as a linear function of the number, x, of tablets purchased.
\nAnswer:
\ny = \\(\\frac{10,183}{17}\\) x
\ny = 599x<\/p>\n

b. Is the function discrete? Explain.
\nAnswer:
\nThe function is discrete. You cannot have half of a tablet; therefore, it must be a whole number of tablets, which means it is discrete.<\/p>\n

c. What number does the function assign to 7? Explain.
\nAnswer:
\nThe function assigns 4,193 to 7, which means that the cost of 7 tablets would be $4,193.00.<\/p>\n

Question 2.
\nA function C assigns to each word in the English language the number of letters in that word. For example, C assigns the number 6 to the word action.
\na. Give an example of an input to which C would assign the value 3.
\nAnswer:
\nAny three – letter word will do.<\/p>\n

b. Is C a discrete function? Explain.
\nAnswer:
\nThe function is discrete. The input is a word in the English language, therefore it must be an entire word, not part of one, which means it is discrete.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
